Discussions about next workshop in Berlin and interrogation from Turkey. They have no experience in these kind of project and prefer to let Germany start in order to prepare themselves the best they can. Moreover, November is the best time for them Propositions about final products and repartitions of rules : it was difficult to finish this point and decide to have a reflexion about this point by mails Some ideas : A game-written in strip s comic with traditional activities from different countries ( as for example receipts cooking from Italy, cheeses from France) but it could be others activities in this game as handcrafts, dances, puppets, and also computer games. Next meeting in partners countries planned: Germany the second first week of June 2011, Turkey in November 2011, Italy in June Europanorat (German partner s) Present methodologic s evaluations Presentation of Tera intercultural game: European puzzle This puzzle has been created by Susana Gonçalves in order to make animations in schools with children between 10 and 18. She worked with an association which help young and disabled people and this association made wooden puzzle in order to be more respectful toward environment. The puzzle is available for rent or sell. The point was to show to the participants how we can play with children/teenager just with a puzzle and deliver a concrete message without a lot of words. Association Na animation in a gypsy camp: Lisa and Clément started to work with a gypsy camp 6 month ago. They try to help young gypsy to express themselves by drawing. They invited us into the gypsy camp and families accepted to work in front of the European group. Children are working in a new comic strip, they invented a story and they draw the characters. They also work to adapt an alphabet book with gypsy words. This workshop has let to understand how to work with disadvantaged people with comics, especially with young children and to exchange about gypsy situation in each country. Page 7

8 Second workshop: 19 th November All the group went in the Cité internationale de la bande dessinée local to meet the association ADAPEI an association which help disabled person and their families. A group of 8 people (and 2 educators) came to draw and present their work in front of the group. They explained to the group that for them it s very important to practice arts like drawing because its help us to develop creativity and feel confident. The European group participated to the activity and they kept all their drawings. This activity showed to the group how this disabled people can express themselves by art. The social workers, educators had to innovate with new methods of communication to help disadvantaged people in their organization. The CIBDI and ADAPEI developed alternative approaches to integrate disadvantaged citizens into society In the afternoon the target group changed, 8 under 18 came with 2 educators and the European group worked with them. They are youngsters in difficulties, with judicial problems. Victims and delinquents work together. These people don t live in their parent s home but in a specific center called Jeanne d Arc. Some of them don t have any contact with their family anymore. Each week they come to the Centre International de la Bande Dessinée to draw something. In this workshop the group worked around the theme of the colours. Each picture can express something different if you change the colours. They had to represent: breaks up and love. All the drawing have been posted. Page 8
